A Lost Tooth Could Cost You Two Thousand Or More Dollars

The cost of a single implant can run around $2000 or even higher.   Many people have multiple implants. 

They have a lot of money wrapped up in their mouths.  

How can you avoid running into the same fate?   I guess it would make the most sense to look at what causes tooth loss and try to prevent that, right? 

prevent losing teethThe primary cause of tooth loss, you can ask any dental professional about this, is gum disease.  It's a serious problem that many people have.  Perhaps as many as 3 out of every 4 people have some gum disease.

What can prevent or reverse gum disease?  

The answer to that question can vary from person to person.  I should point out that if you have gum disease or think you might, you should be under the care of a dentist or periodontist.  This is critical.

Most people with gum disease have periodontal pocket depths (something that your hygienist or dentist can measure) of 3mm or greater. 

Generally speaking, most dental professionals would say that any depths above 3mm are a problem.  Also, generally speaking, 3mm and below is considered healthy.

Therefore, you want to get all of your periodontal pocket depths to 3mm and below. 

If the gums are healthy at that point, you have successfully avoided the number on cause of tooth loss! 

One Way This Can Happen.

This has worked for many people.  Nothing works 100%  of the time for 100% of the people.  But here is the process in a nutshell.

Find out what your current periodontal pocket readings are.   Use the HydroFloss for at least a month.

And then go back to your dental health professional and see if your readings have improved or returned to the 3mm and below levels that are generally considered healthy.  

If so, that was a success - if confirmed to be so by your dentist or periodontist. 

Continue to use the HF and get your regular cleanings and checkups. Always inquire about those pocket depths so that you can keep an eye on them.   Good work!
